Syracuse only scored two more runs, both in the sixth inning. After Yonny Hernandez led off with a single, Drew Gilbert doubled, scoring Hernandez and cutting the lead to 8-2. With a runner at second, Joey Meneses ripped his league-leading 24th double of the season to bring Gilbert home and make it 8-3.
